Concept Search - What can I type?

For a concept search, you can enter phrases, sentences, or full paragraphs in English. For example, copy and paste the abstract of a patent application or paragraphs from an article.

Concept search eliminates the need for complex Boolean syntax to inform retrieval. Our Semantic Gist engine uses advanced cognitive semantic analysis to extract the meaning of data. This reduces the chances of missing valuable information, that may result from traditional keyword searching.

Abstract

University of California, Santa Barbara
A survey of software engineering managers reveals that project success is related to planning, organizing, and control, but more research is needed to find out exactly how and why.
In August of 1980, we wrote an articles in which we hypothesized 20 major software engineering project management problems. (To avoid later confusion, we define a ";software engineering project"; as a software development task that has a prescribed starting point, a specific budget and resources, established responsibilities, and a completion schedule.) We also conducted an opinion survey on a sample of the data processing industry to verify these hypothesized SEPM issues. Our sample consisted primarily of senior computer scientists, authors and lecturers on software engineering and project management, software development project managers, and highly visible individuals who, because of their position in industry, government, and universities, influence the opinion of the computing community.
